Linear and Rotary Transfers
Modules designed for linear translation and rotational movement of samples under high or ultra-high vacuum conditions. They enable precise transfer, positioning, and manipulation of samples both between chambers and within individual chambers of the vacuum system—without compromising vacuum integrity.
The video shows the process of capturing and ejecting the sample carrier, moving it to the loading chamber, and then placing it back into the holder using a linear transfer.
We encourage you to familiarize yourself with our systems equipped with linear transfer:

Linear Transfers
The linear transfer module is designed for transferring samples under high- or ultra-high-vacuum conditions. It enables transport between system chambers, such as the loading chamber, test chambers, and coating chambers. It allows sample movement without venting individual chambers, eliminating the risk of sample contact with the atmosphere. The linear transfer ensures precise positioning and safe transport of workpieces within integrated vacuum systems, ensuring continuity of technological and research processes.
The linear transfer can be operated in both manual and motorized versions.
Rotary Transfers
The rotary transfer for placing a sample, ex., in a vacuum chamber or inside an electromagnet, is an advanced mechanical system that enables precise sample positioning and rotation. The system is available in two variants: manual and automated, using a stepper motor. The stepper motor version ensures high movement precision and repeatability, which is crucial for applications requiring precise positioning.
